Some AI detectors are reportedly falsely accusing students of using artificial intelligence to submit assignments and exam papers. According to emails seen by Bloomberg Businessweek, a student who has autism spectrum disorder said she tended to write in a formulaic manner, which was misconstrued as being AI-generated. Consequently, she was given a written warning about allegedly plagiarizing work. Bloomberg conducted a test on 500 college applications submitted to Texas A&M University before the release of ChatGPT, using AI detection services like Copyleaks and GPTZero. The services flagged 1-2% of these applications as “likely” written by AI, with some being labeled with 100% certainty.
